Box Demo

Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.-Arthur C. Clarke

THE CONCEPT

The piece was essentially grounded on the principles of Stage Magic, invoking five of the categorizations of Illusion. These Categories greatly informed the conceptual and aesthetic foundation that were fused with minimalistic form design and Illuminated geometry. This geometry was then placed into a projection-based physical Installation, where the 'magic' was captured live with a potion control camera, filmed verite style without post effects; in essence the immense technology thats behind the curtain was completely masked from the viewer by the methods used to capture the performance.

Box explores the synthesis of real and digital space through projection-mapping onto moving surfaces. The short film documents a live performance, captured entirely in camera. botndolly.com/box
